VA Lighthouse

VA Lighthouse is the US Department of Veterans Affairs' developer API platform. Published at developer.va.gov with production endpoints at api.va.gov, Lighthouse exposes 22+ APIs covering Benefits (claims, documents, reference data, intake), Health (HL7 FHIR R4 Patient Health and Clinical Health, Community Care Eligibility), Facilities, Forms, Veteran Verification and Confirmation, Appeals and Decision Reviews under the Appeals Modernization Act (AMA), Address Validation, Direct Deposit Management, VA Letter Generation, Education Benefits, and the full VA Home Loan Guaranty stack (Loan Guaranty, Loan Review, Guaranty Remittance, Health-Care-Costs Coverage). All authenticated APIs use OAuth 2.0 with both Authorization Code (Veteran consent) and Client Credentials (system) flows; the health APIs additionally support SMART-on-FHIR. The platform is operated by the VA Office of the CTO with open-source backend code in github.com/department-of-veterans-affairs/vets-api and reference clients in vets-api-clients.
